Crockett Vents to Castillo | Miami Vice

[@mbapache64]

I think I liked the Castillo character so much because of his purity. There was nothing pretentious or false about him. EJO played this character SUPERBLY!!

[@richardstevens8839]

Indeed and some of his best acting was at the end of ‘Miami Squeeze’ when he tells Crockett it’s important what the team think of him

[@jameslonano5659]

goosebumps and chills. Olmos response to Crockett was epic.

[@technologic21]

Castillo is a great Lt. He teaches Crockett a very valuable lesson in this episode. Accountability for one's actions. He cares deeply for both his officers and the community.

[@ritira20mila]

What are you talking about? It's the exact opposite. It is even clearer if you watch the episode. Sonny was giving in to overwhelming guilt that was preventing him from moving on and do his job. Castillo acknowledges his responsibility, but he tells Sonny "if you let this responsibility burn you inside, you will not be able to move on". Castillo teaches Sonny a lesson on how to deal with guilt.

[@HoofPrintsDR]

Man I like how calm Castillo always was.

[@mikeymcmikeface5599]

Castillo is cool.

[@HouseholdDog]

Calm, but with the weight of the world on his shoulders.

[@Bruce.-Wayne]

Castillo: "Its gonna scar you, burn you, eat you, inside and it should "......no wiser words have never been spoken from a lieutenant

[@paulastiles5507]

It was a difficult conflict in that episode. The kid pointed a gun at Sonny with intent and Sonny responded per his training. So, Sonny was off the hook, legally. The kid had a bad past and had been turned into a contract killer/gang member because juveniles got less prison time and the gang leaders used that as a loophole. But at the end of the day, he was still just a kid, a kid who had been brainwashed and manipulated and used, and Sonny shot him. The saddest part was that Sonny was practically the only person in the story who recognized that.

Sonny's anguish and frustration between 1:28 - 1:46 about shooting that child, gives us insight on what real officers go through in these situations...

[@Deborahtunes]

@DOA V 2.0 ~ I would switch that around and say maybe 5% don't have remorse. For the most part police officers are not the heartless people the media and leftists politicians make them out to be. I've meant & known a few cops, both black and white. And had good and bad experiences with both races. It all depends on that officer's mentality. It doesn't help when a person is out there committing crimes, but still acts as if they haven't done anything wrong...

[@petera.crespo-garcia3707]

Question is how will the real officers in real life avoid these situations in the future?

[@Deborahtunes]

@@petera.crespo-garcia3707 ~ In this situation, it's harder problem. I would have to really give it some serious thought, before I could answer. However, in cases where they have committed crimes, but continue to deny it and fight anyway, that's on the criminal. Police shouldn't have to give up their lives because certain people don't want to follow the laws...

[@trinitarianchampion]

@DOA V 2.0 stop the whining. White people are killed way more by police than persons of color as you claim and persons of color murdering persons of non color is also way higher than person of color getting killed by persons of non color

[@petera.crespo-garcia3707]

@@trinitarianchampion Yep the persons of color get more prison time than the persons of non-color (less or shorter jail time for non-color) if they kill persons of non-color or the police. It gonna take time, but I would recommend for the persons of color, non-color, and the police to stop killing each other, etc.

Still so gut-wrenching, especially now that I'm older. A reminder that despite the body count Vice has made, they're still human, and in between the action, this is what they're feeling.

[@fernandaaraujo7819]

Really Lieutenant Castillo is like a father to the OCB detectives, look how he consoles Gina, how he talks to Sonny... even Sonny in the episode Miami Squeeze when Martin is bedridden after being shot, Crockett says he's the glue that holds them together! As for some comments here that talk about Eddie James and Don not getting along, guys, they got over it in the first season of Miami Vice, of course, they didn't become best friends but they're not enemies either, they respected each other from then on.

[@sandrasanders706]

Nice to know!

[@vegetasolo1221]

The dilapidated apartment building used in the pilot later became Gianni Versace's mansion, after much renovation. Later on, Don Johnson was a frequent guest at the mansion and a friend to Versace. On July 15, 1997, Versace was shot and killed in front of the mansion. Greg Kral, a real-life Miami police officer who sometimes appeared as an extra, was involved in the SWAT raid that turned up Versace's murderer, serial killer Andrew Cunanan.

Crockett: "I'm off the hook." Castillo: "With the department." Crockett: (after a pause) "But not with the community." Castillo: "Not with yourself, Sonny." Crockett: "DiLallo called you." Then, with force and heat: "What does he WANT me to SAY! What do you want me to say! I'd like to see you up there...I shot the kid. I shot him, he may die, it was my gun, I can't pull the bullet back in there. And there's nothing that you say or anybody says or no shrink is gonna change that!!"

I don't have anything against shrinks, but there's nothing they can tell you about how to deal with lifelong trauma and remorse. You'll have occasional nightmares, you'll see things when you close your eyes, and that's that. And this can apply to any kind of trauma and remorse, any situation.

[@paulastiles5507]

@@dafunkester That's a really interesting interview. It sounds as though Olmos went full-on Method and *everyone* was initially taken aback by it. But, to their credit, they all rolled with it (including Johnson) and it seems as though they soon figured out that it worked, that the tension is created among the cast actually raised the quality of the scenes to a much higher level. After that, it probably went fine. Olmos doesn't seem to have any hard feelings about the show and Johnson doesn't seem to hold any grudges, either. Say what you like about Johnson's personal demons at the time, but they never seemed to stop him bringing his A game to the show.
